So I guess the right thing to do for now is, what Ojaswin also mentioned
[1].  Let's go with patch [2], as is.. and we can fix all the remaining
issues as part of this series. With that in mind, this patch series
needs to be applid on top of [2]. So that means.. our error handling
should also properly take care of unregister shrinker and freeing sbi..
